This continues the theme started with vm_brk() and vm_munmap():
vm_mmap() does the same thing as do_mmap(), but additionally does the
required VM locking.
This uninlines (and rewrites it to be clearer) do_mmap(), which sadly
duplicates it in mm/mmap.c and mm/nommu.c. But that way we don't have
to export our internal do_mmap_pgoff() function.
Some day we hopefully don't have to export do_mmap() either, if all
modular users can become the simpler vm_mmap() instead. We're actually
very close to that already, with the notable exception of the (broken)
use in i810, and a couple of stragglers in binfmt_elf.

Until we push the unaligned access support for tilegx, it's silly
to have arch/tile/kernel/proc.c generate a warning about an unused
variable. Extend the #ifdef to cover all the code and data for now.

The scheduler depends on receiving the CPU_STARTING notification, without
which we end up into a lot of trouble. So add the missing call to
notify_cpu_starting() in the bringup code.

"This includes Paul Gortmaker's change to fix the <asm/system.h>
disintegration issues on tile, a fix to unbreak the tilepro ethernet

development over the last few months.
They have all been to LKML and on linux-next for the last few days.
The EDAC change to MAINTAINERS is an oddity but discussion on the
linux-edac list suggested I ask you to pull that change through my

The return path as we reload registers and core state requires that r30
hold a boolean indicating whether we are returning from an NMI, but in a
couple of cases we weren't setting this properly, with the result that we
could accidentally unmask the NMI interrupt(s), which could cause confusion.
Now we set r30 in every place where we jump into the interrupt return path.

Previously we were returning SIGSEGV in this case. It seems cleaner
to return SIGBUS since the hardware figures out alignment traps
before TLB violations, so SIGBUS is the "more correct" signal.

If we are single-stepping and make a syscall, we call ptrace_notify()
explicitly on the return path back to user space, since we are returning
to a pc value set artificially to the next instruction, and otherwise
we won't register that we stepped over the syscall instruction (swint1).

Fix a long-standing bug in the stack backtracer where we would print
garbage to the console instead of kernel function names, if the kernel
wasn't built with symbol support (e.g. mboot).
Make sure to tag every line of userspace backtrace output if we actually
have the mmap_sem, since that way if there's no tag, we know that it's
because we couldn't trylock the semaphore.
Stop doing a TLB flush and examining page tables during backtrace.
Instead, just trust that __copy_from_user_inatomic() will properly fault
and return a failure, which it should do in all cases.
Fix a latent bug where the backtracer would directly examine a signal
context in user space, rather than copying it safely to kernel memory
first. This meant that a race with another thread could potentially
have caused a kernel panic.
Guard against unaligned sp when trying to restart backtrace at an
interrupt or signal handler point in the kernel backtracer.
Report kernel symbolic information for the call instruction rather
than for the following instruction. We still report the actual numeric
address corresponding to the instruction after the call, for the sake
of consistency with the normal expectations for stack backtracers.

Commit bd119c6923
"Disintegrate asm/system.h for Tile"
created the asm/switch_to.h file, but did not add an include
of it to all its users.
Also, commit b4816afa39
"Move the asm-generic/system.h xchg() implementation to asm-generic/cmpxchg.h"
introduced the concept of asm/cmpxchg.h but the tile arch
never got one. Fork the cmpxchg content out of the asm/atomic.h
file to create one.

We have lots of infrastructure in place to partition multi-core systems
such that we have a group of CPUs that are dedicated to specific task:
cgroups, scheduler and interrupt affinity, and cpuisol= boot parameter.
Still, kernel code will at times interrupt all CPUs in the system via IPIs
for various needs. These IPIs are useful and cannot be avoided
altogether, but in certain cases it is possible to interrupt only specific
CPUs that have useful work to do and not the entire system.
This patch set, inspired by discussions with Peter Zijlstra and Frederic
Weisbecker when testing the nohz task patch set, is a first stab at trying
to explore doing this by locating the places where such global IPI calls
are being made and turning the global IPI into an IPI for a specific group
of CPUs. The purpose of the patch set is to get feedback if this is the
right way to go for dealing with this issue and indeed, if the issue is
even worth dealing with at all. Based on the feedback from this patch set
I plan to offer further patches that address similar issue in other code
paths.
This patch creates an on_each_cpu_mask() and on_each_cpu_cond()
infrastructure API (the former derived from existing arch specific
versions in Tile and Arm) and uses them to turn several global IPI
invocation to per CPU group invocations.
Core kernel:
on_each_cpu_mask() calls a function on processors specified by cpumask,
which may or may not include the local processor.
You must not call this function with disabled interrupts or from a
hardware interrupt handler or from a bottom half handler.
arch/arm:
Note that the generic version is a little different then the Arm one:
1. It has the mask as first parameter
2. It calls the function on the calling CPU with interrupts disabled,
but this should be OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled anyway.
arch/tile:
The API is the same as the tile private one, but the generic version
also calls the function on the with interrupts disabled in UP case
This is OK since the function is called on the other CPUs
with interrupts disabled.
